Slab Effects on Rocking Frame Performance
The response of a rocking frame with and without slab affects is described. The 3-storey 2D steel rocking frame has friction tension-only “GripNGrab” (GNG) devices. It was found that the effect of the slab reduced the displacements of the short period frame considered, especially at high levels of shaking. Also, the response became less sensitive to GNG tooth pitch, and to GNG stiffness, when the slab was considered. However, the increase in base shear was 300% in the case studied and permanent displacements resulted due to slab yielding.
